It shots movies quite well.You would need to purchase Sony's waterproof case to use this camera underwater.Of course there is a warranty.

Yes, it shoots HD 720. It is not waterproof to my knowledge. Comes with a standard warranty from Sony.

Vincent, have you contacted GE, you can click on the tab that says contact the seller and send them a email. I have a video in my review of the GE DV1 pocket camcorder. it takes some great video and nice pictures if you read a lot of the reviews on this camcorder most of them say it's not really waterproof. and it dose not have auto focuses and you can't take real close up on like a coin. I would buy the cheaper model and check it out. I gave mine to my sister but I will buy another one and now that they are only $60 it's a very good deal, look at my video.

The Panasonic is not waterproof and you should not take it snorkeling. Mine lasted less than 10 minutes (leaked) snorkeling in shallow water at the start of my visit to Galapagos and I was very careful to make sure it was clean, closed and locked. Others have had similar problems with this camera. I have had other underwater cameras (Nikon film camera) that lasted for years. I think the TS3 has a poor gasket design on their door, it didn't seem to be very tight and of course they will not fix or replace the camera with water damage, your fault! Don't know about Nikon but the Canon D20 seems to be getting good reviews. The Panasonic is not waterproof and you should not take it snorkeling.

I have the warranty but haven't needed to use it. I haven't had any problems with the camera. Used it cave tubing in Belize and snorkeling in Grand Cayman..

The camera is somewhat weather-proof but not exactly waterproof. It can withstand getting a bit wet in the rain or some splashes in a kayak but if it were submerged in the water, it will almost certainly get ruined.

Hi, Please contact the seller via Amazon. I also had problems. I was in contact with the seller 2 or 3 times . They were super nice and walked me through all my problems. Also sent me new manual.My camera works super. I use it on WiFi and also broadcast on the internet in 720P. The noise your camera makes is not normal. Mind is very quite. I believe it has a 1 year warranty. Good Luck.

it was new and i made a waterproof case for it because i heard that it wasn't waterproof in the ocean and so i didn't want to take any chances. It was an ok camera, low definition but i lost it in the ocean while surfing so it didn't turn out well. I ended up just getting a go pro. there are many other cameras out there, wait a little longer and buy the best product and make sure you don't drop it in the ocean. haha.

The camera is water proof. I have used one for my work in harsh environments for some time now, and it is an excellent camera. Due to this, I bought one for my son.

My purchase was new so I can only respond about that purchase....Yes I did have the full manufactures warranty. However I have had no need to use any part of that warranty. The camera worked as advertised, even down to the minor issue with reds that I was suppose to experience. That was even solved by just working with the camera more.

I think there are much better cameras for the money, unless waterproof is really important to you. And at this point, if I had it to do over, I'd buy the new inexpensive go-pro model instead. I find the photos to be meh at best. And the video performance is only okay. The underwater is good, but only so useful.

The camera is truly amazing. But I had a minor issues with it under water. When I used it once under water it developed condensation in the lens afterwards. I am not using it under water anymore which is a pity but I do not want to ruin otherwise nice camera. I suspect there is some kind of leak and I would be thankful for any advice.

I have the sony and love it. I particularly like the fantastic panoramic feature - I dont see a reference to that on the panasonic description here. I have had the Olympus variants of the waterproof cameras in the past and they were quite good. Have not taken the sony into the water yet - I assume it will be trouble free (as the olympus cameras have been in the past). The picture quality on the sony is a step up from my past cameras. Having not tried the Panasonic yet, I recommend the sony.

No, it doesn't come with US warranty (at least no such documentation within the package).I've the camera for several months now. Great picture quality.There was one incident when the viewer was unstable (periphery of image blurry), when I took outdoor picture for several hours. After I went indoors and the camera cooled down, it was back to normal.

Unfortunately I was unable to find anything in the paperwork stating it is waterproof. The camera comes with a waterproof case that has buttons for operation, and the remote is definitely water resistant if not waterproof, it would not be effected by rain but I am not sure if it is submersible.

Agree with Bob ring's comment. The only thing I am disappointed with is battery life is a little short sometimes. I have got some great shallow water pictures with it. Stills as well as videos. It is a lot of camera for the money. Do not try to change the battery with wet hands. Mine stopped working for a short time until I dried it out. I do really like it. I do recommend buying a couple extra batteries. I have taken around 6000 pictures with mine.
